November Exercise........Christmas Angels all Year Round


My first script


Can I post this here? (really legan45)


I wrote this because I need practice in writing about the things I see-I don't know if that was ever a writing exercise but here goes! No title yet.

I saw a sunrise today.

It was that kind of sunrise. The kind where you see it and just need to tell someone how beautiful it is. And you can't. You can't because you're in your car, driving to work. You are alone.


A New Board! (m)


We archived again! Thank you, gentle writers, for filling board #65 with such grand exercises and questions.

There's still a whole week to show us your November writing exercise! If you put your exercise on the board recently and haven't gotten feedback, please repost on this new board.

Hmmmm, what torture to put you through in December? Any requests for the December exercise?

I'm hitting the shower now. See y'all tonight - or maybe tomorrow.

Happy Thanksgiving, Gentle Writers! (n/t)



Thanks to all for the input


Thanks for the great advice and encouragement. Your enthusiasm for my writing makes me want to write many more short stories. I've enjoyed reading the other stories as well. It's so interesting to see the different styles of writing, and it's also very inspiring. Thanks again ~ Larri


Disappointed, but not discouraged.(m)


Well I heard from the agent (a very nice rejection) about the short story collection/novella. She thinks its a wonderful body of work, full of a grace and poignance she's rarely encoutered. But she thinks it would be tough for her to sell.

Waaaaaahhh! I do understand. My work is neither literary nor genre, so it would be hard to sell. But I do feel very encouraged by her kind words. So, I'm going to query small publishers on my own and see what happens. I'm not discouraged girls, but I must admit I'm a little disappointed.


Idea!


I know this is a very busy time, with the holidays and all. But how about everyone who has benefited from this board and has fifteen minutes to spare do just one critique a day?

I'm sure it would take some of the load off the class leaders who donate so much time.

New to this board. Here's my posting. Don't laugh.


Steve drove his car onto Rt. 395 and headed north toward Anne’s apartment. He leaned forward and popped a CD into the player and turned up the volume. “10:15. I wonder if she’ll still be awake,” he thought

He leaned back and glanced at the rear view mirror. A red Jeep was in the center lane behind him with two black sports cars coming up fast. “Are those guys racing? Oh, man, somebody’s going to get…Holy Shit.” The Jeep’s turn signal started flashing right. Then the second black car went right.
